“The White Hart, in the small town of Wiveliscombe, impressed me with its helpful staff, clean rooms, and free on-site parking - a bonus given the town's charm. While the building's age gives it a quirky, old-fashioned feel, the tasty continental breakfast and sensible bar prices made it a good value, in my opinion. It's a nice alternative to Taunton's chain hotels, especially if you're seeking a relaxed atmosphere.”
